Investigating

On Wednesday June 26, both Bitfinex and Ethfinex will be offline for up to seven hours, from 8.45 AM UTC onwards, as we commence a platform upgrade designed to enhance the stability and scalability of the iFinex matching engine.

The platform upgrade will require taking all iFinex trading platforms offline for the duration of the maintenance period. This means that traders across both Bitfinex and Ethfinex will be unable to trade, view or access their wallets during the update.
